[QUOTE="MorkandMindy, post: 76281754, member: 172332"] The day of the operation has finally arrived; It's tomorrow! I became ill in March 2019 with hyperparathyroidism. Because I have a low income and had to wait for the enrollment period, it took two years with various dead ends, appeals, and delays to get health insurance. I didn't notice the health insurance I chose was not in a network, so I got booked with the lowest cost companies for the pre-op tests and scans, and it took six months to get through the 12 appointments, each with an average waiting time of 2 weeks. In contrast, a relative in England with the same problem got all those tests done in one hospital within four hours, in one day. Yes, I'm jealous. The parathyroid grew during those two and a half years until a simple laparoscopic operation was no longer possible, so now I'm scheduled for a general anesthetic in the main operating theatre. If I survive I'll post how much it ended up costing. [/QUOTE]
